prepared to get into the mindset of the army they have brought to battle with. If you and your opponent have a great game, the actual outcome of the battle becomes less important. Once more (with feeling), you are playing with your opponent – not against them. The team running the event is there to help describe the campaign story as it unfolds and they will work out what impact your games have upon it. Most importantly they are there to ensure everybody has a great time. Remember – it’s only toy soldiers! Games will be driven by the narrative of the campaign. This means that during the course of the event various games may appear a bit one‐sided when viewed from the usual gaming perspective. In any war, commanders have to deal with unfair and unbalanced situations, using cunning and skill to prevail against overwhelming odds, and the same may be true for you. However, whatever the scenario or battlefield conditions, your game and your story will always count in the big scheme of things; the Tempus Fugitives will always try to make sure that you are not asked to play a game you simply can't win before any dice are cast. There will always be critically important mission objectives that you will need to strive to achieve. Most importantly remember that, as this is a team event, even if you lose your individual battle your taskforce or faction may still do well overall; don't worry about 'winning', just think about having a good time. It is our hope that we can repay some small part of the kindness that the gaming community has shown us over the years and organise a top notch event that everyone can enjoy.

Emperor now faces its greatest challenge as Horus, favoured son of the Emperor, has declared himself lord of mankind in his father’s place. History records you as one of the commanders taking part in what has become known as "the Horus Heresy"; a campaign that chronicles the epic struggle for command of the Imperium... IMPORTANT!

THIS IS NOT A TOURNAMENT. YOU WILL GET MORE OUT OF THE WEEKEND IF YOU ENJOY THE EXPERIENCE RATHER THAN FOCUS ON THE OUTCOME OF YOUR GAMES. TRY AND PLAY WITH YOUR OPPONENT RATHER THAN AGAINST THEM. The Tempus Fugitives have designed this campaign weekend to be (we hope) as enjoyable as possible. Once again (all together now) it is important to remember that the campaign weekend is not a tournament. If you are expecting anything other than to just have fun – turn back now! The games you play are all connected to part of a greater battle – the Horus Heresy by humanity to claim the galaxy from the alien species that dominate it. Games Workshop has a really fantastic Throne of Skulls Grand Tournament programme and should you want to get involved in a true test of your skill at Warhammer 40,000 please contact Direct Sales on 0115 91 40000 or see the events page at www.uk.games‐workshop.com The Age of the Emperor: The Horus Heresy campaign weekend presents Games Workshop hobbyists with an opportunity to play in a different style than they may be used to. In short, Tempus Fugitives’ campaigns are all about trying out new ideas and contributing to an adventure. In fact the story is almost as important as the actual games themselves and players should be

Acknowledgments This weighty tome you hold in your slightly clammy hands is the second exciting instalment in the epic Age of the Emperor saga ‐ the latest Tempus Fugitives Warhammer 40,000 campaign weekend. We have not arrived at this point by mere chance or by some whim; instead we are here because of a number of important people helped us along the way. The bad news is that the list is quite lengthy – so we’ll group them together so as to hopefully not leave anyone out. Most important of all ‐ the Tempus Fugitives would like to thank Games Workshop for giving many of us jobs and all of us a grim darkness to play with. Without their universe to run around in, we’d all be playing Risk or Sudoku… The wives, girlfriends, boyfriends, partners and right hands of the Tempus Fugitives – for letting their worse halves go and play with lead dollies ‘up north’ several times a year. The Tempus Fugitives are most serious about their work and no fun was had in the preparation of this weekend… Any rumours of 80’s disco dancing on the revolving stage in the Reflex bar in Nottingham high street are completely unfounded. My personal thanks go to Andrew Fish for his continued input and creativity both with the campaign packs as well as the website. The UK Events team deserve mention here. The support received over the years from Brian Aderson and Andy Joyce has meant that we have had the confidence to try and pull these events off. And last but not least we’d like to thank all those who have visited our website and forums. The feedback and support given to our campaign weekends has encouraged us to try and put together the best Warhammer 40,000 campaign weekend we possibly could.

Outline of Play In addition to your fully painted army and this campaign pack you will need the following:

• The English language version of the Warhammer 40,000 5th Ed rulebook and the Planetstrike expansion

• Dice, Templates, objective counters and Tape measure

• Superglue and poly cement

• The appropriate English language version of your Codex and any Imperial Armour material relating to your army. No photocopies!

• At least two copies of your army roster (one to be handed in during registration)

• A Tray to carry your models

• Pen and paper

• Somewhere to sleep overnight. (For help contact Nottingham Information Centre on 0115 915 5330)

• Money for refreshments. Hot drinks and doughnuts are provided in the mornings as part of your ticket as are lunch on both days and dinner on Saturday.


How the Campaign Works Upon arrival each player will be assigned to a team, called a Task Force, containing up to ten players. You and the other players in your Task Force are allied field commanders fighting as part of the armies loyal to the Emperor of Mankind or the Warmaster Horus as they battle it out to determine the fate of the galaxy.

The campaign will be fought in five rounds and take place on a number of Warzones. Each round a series of battles will be fought using the 5th Edition Warhammer 40,000 game rules. Each player within the campaign will take part in each round.

Each faction has a number of objectives to achieve over the course of the weekend. These objectives will be revealed as the campaign unfolds.

There are a number of Task Forces for each faction each with their own agendas, strengths and weaknesses. When you purchase your ticket you are assigned to a taskforce. Before the first game on Saturday you will be asked to gather at one of the task force muster points and nominate a Task Force Commander. The role of the Task Force Commander is of crucial importance to the team and it is the Commander's responsibility at the end of each game to collate results and hand those back to your Faction Marshal, who will be represented by a member of the event team. Do not elect an incompetent Taskforce Commander – you will regret it!

Initiative The initiative in the first round is determined by the narrative for each Warzone and is indicated under the Warzone description. Initiative in each subsequent round is determined by the results of the previous round.

a

At the beginning of each round Task Forces will receive a Mission Briefing. The Taskforce Commander (taking advice from the Taskforce) must then decide upon the battle stance of the turn and may even have the choice of which mission you will play to achieve them. The mission selected must be the same for the whole Task Force – you cannot change it depending on who your opponent is.

Once they have made their joint decision the players in Task Force with the Initiative must select the tables on which the games will be played and sit at the table edge facing towards the stage wall. Players on the opposing side then come over to their assigned Warzone and pair up. Deployment is determined as normal unless specified in the mission.

Battle Stance Your campaign points determine the outcome of the campaign. Each round you may set how your taskforce intends to fight – Aggressive, Defensive or Balanced (which is the default setting of 3 campaign points for a win and 1 for a draw). Aggressive stance awards 4 campaign points for wins but nothing for draws or losses, defensively rewards wins and draws equally with 2 campaign points. As you must decide your Battle Stance before you play your games each round you have to rely on your judgement as to its outcome. Choose carefully as picking an aggressive stance makes your draws worthless, while defensive stance squanders any bonus from winning. If in doubt choose a balanced stance.

As your games finish you must report the result (Win, Lose or Draw) to the stage along with your opponent. You cannot give your results in without your opponent present.

Any reference to ‘your army’ or ‘the entire army’ always refers to your specific forces and not those of any player allied to you or playing with you in a doubles game. This avoids confusing issues such as multiple Legion tactics or other such benefits. Any reference to ‘friendly’ units or models may be applied to both your units as well as those of any allied players you are battling alongside in a doubles game.

A note on unique units and named characters The whole point of playing in a ‘historical’ setting is to allow you to re‐enact some of the fantastic battles you have read about in the books and novels. You must include at least one named character in your army. An Emperor’s Children army without Tarvitz or Lucius (or Fulgrim) just isn’t quite as exciting! However, as this is a wargame it is possible that you will either play alongside other players with the same characters or may even pair up with them for the doubles. Just assume that either one of the duplicate characters is just a similar character or pick another partner.


Painting and the Best Army Award The Age of the Emperor was a time of hope and glory for the fledgling Imperium of Mankind. We would ask all players to choose painting schemes that reflect the Warhammer 40,000 universe during this time and doing this will greatly increase everyone's enjoyment of the campaign. All models MUST be painted and representative of the appropriate type of troop. Models must be scratch built or at least be based on or comprise of at least 50% Citadel miniature components. You cannot use a model that does not meet these criteria. If you are planning a conversion that you think may need clarification please contact us before the event. You cannot represent units with models that are smaller than the Citadel equivalent.


For example, an Epic scale space marine on a 40,000 slottabase is not acceptable. At the Age of the Emperor: The Horus Heresy Campaign Weekend we will give an award for the Best Army. This is awarded to the player who participates in the weekend with a force that, in the opinion of both players and judges, is the best in terms of painting and character. To qualify as the ‘Best Army’ particular attention will be paid to well themed armies which reflect the time of the Horus Heresy as humanity pushes outwards from Terra to reclaim the galaxy as their birthright. Because we believe that due credit should go to players that have painted their own armies, only players who have painted their armies themselves may be eligible

for the coveted award of Best Army. We ask all participants to be honest if shortlisted. A number of armies will be shortlisted on the Saturday lunch break and then will be voted on by the players during the Sunday lunch break. The winner will be announced at the end of the Campaign Weekend.

Awards Ceremony The Age of the Emperor was a time of heroism and the Awards Ceremony is an opportunity to give recognition to those who have made great sacrifice on the altar of war. As soon as possible after the conclusion of the final game we will begin the awards ceremony and we strongly recommend all players to stay for the ceremony to cheer (or commiserate with) those awarded!



Game 1 Vanguard Doubles Small forces sent ahead of the main army, Vanguard Forces are selected according to the following restrictions. Part of the fun of these small armies is doing something a bit unique that you might not have the time to do with a larger army.

IMPORTANT: YOU MUST INCLUDE AT LEAST ONE NAMED CHARACTER IN EACH ARMYLIST

Each player must have no more than 1000 points.

Vanguard Forces fight the Capture and Control mission using the Spearhead deployment from the 5th Edition Warhammer 40,000 rulebook. If sides are tied on Objectives then Kill Points are used to determine the victor. All non‐vehicle units count as scoring unless stated otherwise.

Vanguard Forces must have one Elites choice. You may spend remaining points from anywhere in the Codex subject to the Vanguard Force Organisation chart provided. Vanguard Veterans may be taken as Elites.

No Formations, Legendary Units or units with Structure points

Artillery, Flyers or vehicles with an armour value of 14 may not be taken. Vehicles such as these are not deployed for the type of missions undertaken by a Vanguard Force.

No Monstrous or Gargantuan creatures or more than 1 unit with an armour value of 12 or higher on any facing (except dedicated transports)

No models with better than a 3+ save are allowed

Game 2 & 4 - Planetstrike Once the enemy has been located, larger forces are brought to bear. It is a calculated use of force in a Planetstrike that tries to achieve the objectives of the war before either side can mobilise the heaviest of their armour. Planetstrike armies are chosen using the following rules:


• A Planetstrike army must be no more than 2000 points. • Each Player has 3 Stratagem Points to spend on Stratagems from the Planetstrike Expansion. You may not use the Scorched Skies Stratagem. Only Martian Mechanicum forces may take the Teleport Assault Stratagem. • Planetstrike armies fight missions from the Planetstrike expansion for Warhammer 40,000. If sides are tied on Objectives then Kill Points are used to determine the victor. All units count as scoring unless stated otherwise. • Planetstrike armies may include models or units from the Vanguard Force • Your Planetstrike army is selected using the Attackers or Defender Planetstrike Force Organisation Chart found in the Planetstrike Expansion for the 5th Edition of Warhammer 40,000. Players must have an armylist to play as both attacker and defender in Planetstrike. It is anticipated that you will use each army at least once in the campaign. • Your Planetstrike army may NOT include units with Structure points, Gargantuan Creatures or any Apocalypse Formations. They may include Legendary Units. • Any Flyers use the rules for aircraft found in the Apocalypse expansion. All hits against Flyers are glancing and Flyers can never count as obscured. • Vehicles detailed only in Forge World's Imperial Armour publications may be used. If a vehicle is described in more than one publication the most recent version must be used. • Units (including vehicles) carrying Missile Launchers, Autocannon, or vehicle mounted Defensive weapons may be upgraded to AA capability for +10 per weapon. This does not apply to any weapon type that has a blast radius. These weapons (like all pintle mounted weapons) hit flyers using the model’s BS rather than only on 6s. • Each table has a set amount of terrain on them. The Defender may remove any terrain pieces they wish and may arrange them in any way they desire before the game begins. They may not add any terrain except for the Planetstrike Fortifications detailed overleaf. • Players must provide any terrain which they are given via a strategic asset (such as craters from a Firestorm). If these are not used then the terrain benefits are not applied.

Planetstrike Fortifications

INDOMITABLE FORTRESS • Your army may not include an indomitable Fortress.

BASTIONS • Your army must include a Bastion. This must either be entirely scratch built or be based on the model with Product Code: 99120199018. A Bastion is always placed by the Defender as a stronghold during setup. The Bastion model owned by the Attacking player is not used unless the mission played is Desperate Assault. • Unless specified in the army special rules, all Bastions are armed with four automated Heavy bolters (one per facing). All Bastions are considered to have four Firepoints on the mid‐level, an open roof and three Firepoints on the lowest level with one doorway (unless modelled differently and explained to your oponent before the game). • You may take up to two additional Bastions as the Defender. These additional Bastions may be combined together in a single Bastion which may have either eight automated Heavy bolters (two per facing) or four automated Lascannons. • The Defending player may exchange either additional Bastion for a Landing Platform. • Each additional Bastion or Landing Platform included in the Defender’s army entitles the Attacker to gain an additional Stratagem point. • Drop Bastions (purchased as a Defensive Stratagem or given by a mission special rules) do not provide additional Strategem Points for either player, nor do they count as Additional Bastions for the purposes of defence lines and Landing Platforms. Nice try though.

INTERCEPTOR GUNS & COMM RELAYS

• Each player may deploy an Interceptor Gun or Comm Relay for each Bastion or Landing Platform they place in the game. This includes Drop Bastions, although the Interceptor Gun or Comm Relay must be mounted on the Drop Bastion. • An Interceptor Gun or Comm Relay may be placed on each Bastion or may be deployed as a freestanding artillery emplacement with an Armour Value of 10.

AEGIS DEFENCE LINES

• Your Defending army may include up to 28” of Aegis Defence line for each Bastion in your army.

Games 3 & 5 - Heavy Assault Force Smashing aside all but the most solidly built defences, the Heavy Assault Force represents conflict on an almost unimaginable scale. The army is subject to the following restrictions:


• Must be no more than 2500 points and is selected from the Heavy Assault Force Organisation Chart. They may include Legendary Units (which, unless specified, count as HQ choices).

• Up to 1000 points of the Heavy Assault Force may be spent to include a single Gargantuan Creatures or a single unit with Structure Points. The unit taken counts as a Heavy Support Choice unless otherwise specified. These units use the rules found in the Apocalypse expansion.

• ALLIES: Up to 1000 points of the Heavy Assault Force may be chosen freely from any allied armylist in the same faction but may not take more than one Legion (so an Iron Hands player loyal to the Emperor may have Imperial Guard and Cult Mechanicus units but may not include White Scars or Death Guard). These allied forces cannot be the compulsory HQ or Troop units in the army. Allies still count as selections on the force organisation chart.

• A Heavy Assault Force usually (but not always) fights the Annihilation mission from page 91 of the 5th Edition Warhammer 40,000 rulebook and deploys using the Pitched Battle rules. Remember: Taskforces with the initiative may decide whether or not to undertake a special mission to achieve their objectives so make sure your army works in more than one type of mission. All members of the Task Force must play the same mission and they must inform their opponents before the game begins.

• Any Flyers use the rules for aircraft found in the Apocalypse expansion. Each unit taken counts as a Fast Attack Choice unless otherwise specified. All hits against Flyers are glancing and Flyers can never count as obscured.

• Vehicles detailed only in Forge World's Imperial Armour publications may be used. If a vehicle is described in more than one publication the most recent version must be used.

• Units (including vehicles) carrying Missile Launchers, Autocannon, or vehicle mounted Defensive weapons may be upgraded to AA capability for +10 per weapon. This does not apply to any weapon type that has a blast radius. These weapons (like all pintle mounted weapons) hit flyers using the model’s BS rather than only on 6s.

• Heavy Assault games 3 is a doubles game played on a 12x4 table. Game 5 is a singles game played on a standard 6x4 table.

SEGMENTUM SOLAR Birthplace of humanity and seat of the Emperor of Mankind. It is from here that the Emperor’s Will still holds in almost absolute terms.

SEGMENTUM PACIFICUS Located in the distant galactic West this region is beset by sporadic communication failures and scattered forces whose loyalty has yet to be declared. While a force has majority control here all players of that faction may force their opponent to re‐roll a successful reserve roll as the fragmented communication channels are taken advantage of by the occupying forces.

ULTIMA SEGMENTUM Located in the galactic East, this region contains the bulk of the Warmaster’s fleet and allied forces. As they make their way spinward more disheartened battlegroups once loyal to the Emperor now declare openly for the Warmaster.

The Warmaster’s Forces have the Initiative here. While the Warmaster’s forces have majority control here all players loyal to the Warmaster may re‐roll a single dice roll once per battle.

SEGMENTUM TEMPESTUS Located in the galactic South, this vast region is of critical importance to control of the galaxy but is still infested with the barbaric alien species known as the Orks. Any of humanity’s forces who are deployed in this region must contend with Ork raids as well as their enemies in this civil war.

This Segmentum counts as two for establishing victory purposes for the campaign. Any force attempting to fight in this warzone suffers d6 AP ‐ wounds (or glancing hits) to d3 random units to represent skirmishes with the Orks prior to battle.

SEGMENTUM OBSCURUS Located in the galactic North, this region was once the heart of the Eldar Empire. Though the Great Crusade has driven them to the fringe, the lack of human infrastructure makes resupplying in the field extremely difficult.

While a force has majority control here all players of that faction may force their opponent to re‐roll successful to hit rolls for one units shooting for one turn representing them running low on ammunition.

Warzones of the Horus Heresy "When the traitor's hand strikes, it strikes with the strength of a Legion." - The Warmaster Horus

Warzone: Diamat Segmentum Tempestus A class I‐Ultra Forge World, Diamat is of critical tactical importance to the Warmaster’s efforts. If he is to reinforce Isstvan and fuel his warmachines for the coming conflict, he must gain the support of as many of the Martian Mechanicum’s worlds as he can. Lion El’Jonson and his Dark Angels Legion are en‐route to Diamat and are planning on assaulting this world with elements of the Imperial Army to wrest it from those agents loyal to the Warmaster. The Dark Angels expect a fierce fight however as the Warmaster has dispatched a Battlegroup of his Sons of Horus to reinforce the planet. The Armies of the Emperor have the Initiative here.

Warzone: Eurynome

Ultima Segmentum

Eurynome is on the distant Eastern Fringe and is of little tactical value to the Warmaster. It is a lush and fertile world which initial surveys by Roboute Guilliman and his Ultramarines Legion show as having been inhabited by a primitive civilisation millennia ago. They became extinct after falling to barbarism and cannibalistic cults but their legacy is a series of strange ruins which stud the surface. Planning for a conflict in the Viridian System, Guilliman and several chapters of his Legion are massing near this world before meeting up with their main forces on Calth. With Calth now under attack by the Word Bearers, Guilliman and his forces are preparing to reinforce their brothers when they are attacked by warp creatures summoned by the ruins and the Word Bearers legion assisted by elements of the Emperor’s Children and World Eaters. Battle was soon joined by a spearhead of Blood Angels fresh from their engagements on Signus Prime. As well as elements from the Expedition force commanded by Guilliman. The Armies of the Warmaster have the Initiative here.

Warzone: Graia

a

Segmentum Obscurus

A verdant agri‐world, Graia is home to several Imperial Army Regiments as well as a major producer of foodstuffs and supplies for much of the Emperor’s forces in the Segmentum. Still raided by Eldar corsairs, the build up of Imperial forces make it a key staging ground for the Segmentum. The Warmaster has ordered Perturabo to lead a force of Iron Warriors, Alpha Legion and World Eaters to seize the planet for their own. The Phalanx, the vast space fortress of Rogal Dorn and his Imperial Fists is first to respond to the Iron Warriors assault and soon both forces are locked in a brutal ground war. The Armies of the Warmaster have the Initiative here.

Warzone: Isstvan V

Ultima Segmentum

The Emperor has ordered the deployment of seven full Space Marine Legions under the overall command of Ferrus Manus. They are tasked with assaulting the Warmaster’s command centre on Isstvan V. Unknown to the Emperor of Mankind, the Night Lords of Konrad Curze, the Iron Warriors of Perturabo, the Word Bearers of Lorgar, and the Alpha Legion of Alpharius and Omegon had already pledged support for the Warmaster in secret, forming a "fifth column" which would strike at the most decisive moment against the Salamanders lead by Vulkan, the Raven Guard under Corax and Ferrus and his Iron Hands. The Armies of the Warmaster have the Initiative here.

Warzone: Prospero Segmentum Pacificus The homeworld of the Thousand Sons Legion, Magus and his sons have long studied the art of sorcery here. The Emperor has commanded that Leman Russ and his Space Wolves bring the red cyclops to heel and bring him to Terra. However, the Warmaster has had those orders changed to an edict seemingly from the Emperor ordering that Magnus and his Thousand Sons are to be utterly destroyed. The City of Light, Tizca, is the location Russ has targeted for Planetstrike. Supporting his efforts are the forces of Jaghatai Khan and his White Scars who are engaging in a series of hit and run attacks on the outlying worlds in the system in an attempt to deny the sorcerers much needed aid while the Wolves of Fenris go about their bloody work. The Armies of the Emperor have the Initiative here.

The lists on the following pages present the participating forces for the Imperial Expedition Fleet. In all cases the most recent edition of the Codex will be used. These are the only armies permitted in this Faction during the weekend. If you have any further questions regarding army selection, please contact the event organisers before the weekend and check the forums at www.tempusfugitives.co.uk.

The published Codices used in this campaign for the Imperial Expedition Fleet are: Codex Space Marines and Codex Imperial Guard. Furthermore the Cult Mechanicus Codex found on the Tempus Fugitives website is used to represent the Martian Mechanicum. All supplementary rules to your Codex can be found in this pack.

There are several units which may be taken by many of the armies during the Age of the Emperor: The Horus Heresy. They are detailed on the following pages and are considered fully usable for this campaign weekend. However, they are not to be considered official in any way outside of the Age of the Emperor: The Horus Heresy Campaign Weekend. Where a unit is restricted to one army, it is clearly indicated in the unit entry.

It was from the Emperor's original group of bodyguards that the first genetically enhanced warriors, superior to all other space marines, were created during the unification wars on Terra. During the Great Crusade, the Custodes always kept a contingent with the Emperor for his protection, but also travelled as envoys spreading his authority throughout the Expedition Fleets.

The Spartan is a rare variant of the Phobos pattern Land Raider. It is distinguishable by its battlement style armoured top deck and its extended hull which projects ahead of the track units. With greatly reduced firepower, the Spartan was designed purely as an infantry delivery vehicle. It is rarely deployed outside of the Ultramarines and Dark Angels Legions as its lack of firepower make it a poor assault vehicle unless properly supported by a detailed battlefield strategy. Heavy Bolters: The Heavy Bolters cannot be fired from within the Spartan and may only be operated by passengers using the top fire point. Fire Points: The Spartan is designed for its passengers to be able to use their own weapons in its defence with formidable protection. Up to six models may use the battlements with surround the castle‐like top deck of the Spartan as a fire point. They may fire their own weapons or may use the forward and rear facing Heavy Bolters. The vehicle remains enclosed and the passengers cannot be harmed unless the vehicle is destroyed. Ceramite Shielding: In order to resist the heat of melta weapons and thermal blasts the Spartan is armoured with thick ceramite shielding. Melta Bombs and weapons with the ‘Melta’ special rule never roll an extra dice for armour penetration against a Spartan. Venerable: Only one in ten Land Raider hulls are worthy of adapting into Spartans and it is a task that the Martian Mechanicum take great pains over. The Vehicles Machine Spirit is tasked with its self repair and the preservation of its passengers rather than the ballistic duties demanded of it in other patterns. The Spartan is extremely hard to cripple and whenever they suffers a glancing or penetrating hit you may ask your opponent to re‐roll the result on the Vehicle Damage table. However, you must accept the second result, even if it is worse.

Special Rules: • Hover Mode • Ceramite Shielding The Storm Bird is a super‐heavy transport capable of transporting six squads of Astartes from an orbiting warship to the battlefield below. At nearly twice the mass of the newer Thunder Hawk gunships, the Storm Birds are veterans of the Unification Wars and are slowly falling out of favour with the Astartes. Their large size and requirement for a larger landing field makes them more vulnerable to enemy fire and more difficult to insert into the heart of the warzone where the Astartes can excel. That said it is a design which has stood the Armies of the Emperor well on countless battlefields for over three centuries.

Wargear • Two under wing mounted twin linked Autocannon • Nose mounted rotary Autocannon (this counts as two twin‐linked autocannon) • Turret mounted rotary Autocannon (this counts as two twin‐linked autocannon) • Two pairs of under wing bomb pylons (a pair under each wing for four pylons in total) Options: May exchange any of its 2 pairs of bomb pylons with two Hellstrike missiles (72” range Strength 8 AP 3 Ordnance) Large Target: Because of its size and relative speed for atmospheric flight shooting attacks against the Storm Bird are made using the firer’s normal BS rather than hitting on 6s. Ceramite Shielding: In order to resist the heat of atmospheric entry a Storm Bird has thick ceramite shielding. Melta Bombs and weapons with the ‘Melta’ special rule never roll an extra dice for armour penetration against a Storm Bird. Bombing Run: For each bombing run the Storm Bird may drop a pair of bombs which is resolved as a Str 6 AP 4 Apocalyptic barrage (6) weapon. This can be done once per pair of bomb pylons, after which the Storm Bird is out of bombs. Example: If the Storm Bird has replaced a pair of bomb pylons with Hellstrike Missiles (giving it two missiles) it has a pair of bomb pylons remaining. The Storm Bird in the example may therefore make a bombing run for a single turn after which it is out of bombs. The Ultima Pattern switches the large wings and engine nacelles for large directional turbines. During key stages of the Heresy, many damaged Storm Birds were retrofitted to the Ultima Pattern by both sides and used as drop ships at Isstvan, Calth and Prospero.

The Primarchs The Primarchs were the twenty genetically‐engineered "sons" of the Emperor. The Emperor used his own DNA in their creation, and they were designed to be far superior to the average human: larger, stronger, hardier, faster, and smarter. They were also incredibly charismatic, as their main role was to be generals and leaders of the Imperial military. They were created in a secret underground laboratory on Luna under tightest security. However, the forces of Chaos managed to spirit them away just prior to their maturation. These were scattered across the galaxy, beyond the Emperor's reach, and all of them landed on different worlds. The Emperor could sense that the Primarchs were alive, but was unable to reach them. The genetic material of each one of them was used to found a single Space Marine Legion, twenty in total. As the Emperor found them, he was generally pleased by their actions, and quickly gave them the leadership of their respective legion. Now that several of the Primarchs have turned from the Emperor it is the grim duty of these brothers to wage war and slay one another.

All models with the designation Primarch count as two models for transport purposes (except Sanguinius who count as three due to his size). Primarch’s benefit from the following special rules:

Independent Character Eternal Warrior Relentless Invulnerable 4+ Save

Deep Strike Fleet Acute Senses Feel No Pain

Majestic: Primarchs may be targeted by shooting even if they have joined a unit (unless he is leading a unit of Primarch Honour Guard).

Inspiring Presence: The Primarch and any allied Space Marine units within 12” of the Primarch are Fearless. In addition, all models in a unit containing a Primarch gain the Counter Attack special rule.

Titanic Might: Such is the power of the Primarchs that they may re‐roll all failed rolls to wound with close combat and shooting attacks.

Heroic Strike: Instead of making their normal attacks in close combat, the Primarch may instead make a single attack which hits and wounds automatically. Against vehicles it causes an automatic penetrating hit against its target. The Heroic Strike is AP 1.

Primarch Armour: The artifice incorporated into the armour of the Primarchs means that none but the most determined of attacks can penetrate it. The armour provides a 1+ armour save (remembering that a roll of a 1 is always a failure).

Fallen Hero: Should a Primarch be reduced to 0 wounds or be taken out of the game in some manner, do not remove the model from the table. Instead place the model on its side (as practically possible). The model now forms an additional objective in Planetstrike, Seize Ground and the Capture and Control missions. In Annihilation and Planetstrike missions the Primarch counts as D3 kill points. Furthermore all allied Imperial units that remain within 6” of the gravely wounded Primarch gain the Counter Attack and Fearless universal special rules and all Astartes of the Primarch’s Legion on the battlefield are Fearless.

The Legion Astartes Using the Space Marine Legions in the Horus Heresy The following rules are used during all games set during the Age of the Emperor: The Horus Heresy. These rules override any conflicting text found in individual army codices. All Space Marine Legions use Codex: Space Marines.

Tactical and Devastator squads may replace any Missile Launcher with an Autocannon at no additional cost.

All Storm Bolters must be replaced by Twin‐Linked Bolters. Sternguard Veterans may not purchase Storm Bolters or Twin‐Linked Bolters (but nice try for thinking it!)

During the Horus Heresy the Legions made heavy use of large infantry formations. Tactical and Devastator squads may include up to an additional fifteen Space Marines to a maximum unit size of Twenty Marines including the Sergeant. Squads of ten or more models may use the Combat Squads rule and must be split into two equal sized squads and so may only use this rule if the squad is of an even number of models. Special Weapon and Heavy Weapon options that are available if the squad numbers ten models are available for a second time if the squad numbers twenty models.

Only one unit of Assault Marines in the army may be equipped with Jump Packs. Vanguard Veterans have no such restriction.

Vengeance rounds are not available to Sternguard Veterans or any other unit with access to Special Ammunition.

Unit types that are listed as Space Marine Captains may take a Command squad as per page 132 of Codex Space Marines. Command squads may be equipped with jump packs for +50 points for the unit.

Librarians are treated with suspicion by most of the Primarchs and after the Council of Nikea their use is tightly controlled by the Emperor. No more than 1 un‐named Librarian may be included in any army loyal to the Emperor. The presence of Chaplains makes Librarians even harder to deploy. You may not include un‐named Chaplains and un‐named Librarians in the same army.

Any unit armed with Assault Cannons must replace them with a twin‐linked autocannon (also known as a Reaper Autocannon). If the Assault Cannon is twin‐linked then it is replaced with a quad‐gun (see pg 18 of the Planetstrike rulebook).

Any vehicle that may be armed with Extra Armour may be armed with a Havoc Launcher: The havoc launcher fires a cluster of high explosive missiles. The launcher has the following profile – Range 48”, Strength 5, AP5, Heavy 1 Blast Twin Linked. A Havoc Launcher costs 15 points.

Though in the 41st Millennium vehicles such as the Razorback, Land Raider Crusader, Land Raider Helios, Land Raider Redeemer and Predator Annihilator are commonplace, they remain either undiscovered or awaiting further testing during the Age of the Emperor. However, on occasion vehicles with similar capabilities were employed during the Age of the Emperor, though in far smaller numbers. As a result only two Razorbacks, one Land Raider Helios, one Land Raider Redeemer, one Land Raider Crusader, one Land Raider Prometheus and one Predator with a twin‐linked lascannon turret may be included in an army.

Any Space Marine Bike squadron may be upgraded to Jetbikes at +5 points per model. Any Attack Bikes may be upgraded to Jetbikes at +5 points per model (although they are known as Chariots). Any character that may purchase a Space Marine Bike may instead purchase a Jet Bike for +40 points. Jetbikes are armed with a twin linked bolter. If a Captain is mounted on a Jetbike his Command Squad may purchase Jetbikes for +130 points for the squad.

A single Baneblade or Shadowsword in appropriate Legion colours may be upgraded to a Fellblade or Fellsword for +75 points. It is BS 4 but otherwise remains unchanged.

The Flight of the Eisenstein The Flight of the Eisenstein is a symbol that the Warmaster’s treachery was not blindly followed by all of the Legions at his command. The Eisenstein was a frigate of the Death Guard Legion commanded by Battle‐Captain Nathaniel Garro, one of the few commanders in the Traitor Legions that remained loyal to the Emperor. Their heroic story details the Eisenstein's escape from Istvaan III and its voyage across the galaxy to reach the Emperor. Similarly heroes such as Garviel Loken and the Ancient Rylanor could not stand by and allow the Great Crusade to turn into the Horus Heresy unchallenged. A Flight of the Eisenstein army allows players to field these doomed heroes in their struggle against the forces of the Warmaster. Their fight is the bravest of all as they flight not only their brother Astartes, but literally turn against all that they held dear to stand by the Emperor in his darkest hour.

Flight of the Eisenstein armies always use the Planetstrike Attackers Force Organisation Chart and may not include any independent characters or models with an armour value (except dedicated transports and those units listed here).

Flight of the Eisenstein lists may only include units from the Iron Warriors, Lunar Wolves, Thousand Sons, Alpha Legion, Word Bearers, Emperor’s Children, Death Guard, World Eaters and Night Lords. It may not include any other units found in the Armies of the Emperor Campaign packs. If the army includes a unit of Thousand Sons it may include a single Sorcerer‐Sergeant from the Armies of the Warmaster pack to represent Mhotep. Themed Lists: Though there are many options presented here, for some players they may wish for more themed lists that are true to the background of the Horus Heresy.

Normally you can create a Flight of the Eisenstein army from models painted in the scheme of any of the traitor Legions. Certain characters specifically state which Legion

they are from and so the units in question should be painted appropriately.

These are the following themed lists (and if taken automatically generate the player an additional campaign point each round, regardless of outcome (mainly because your games will be extremely tough!) You may ONLY take the units listed under each themed list and may not take any others!

The Heroes of Isstvan III: Garviel Loken, Tarik Torgaddon, Saul Tarvitz, Nero Vipus, Ullis Temeter, Ehrlen, Solomon Demeter, Argas Brond, Letharton, Rylanor, Huron‐Fel, Gauste, Dhauske, 0‐1 Command Squad, Tactical Squads, Assault Squads, Devastator Squads, Bike Squads, Attack Bike Squads, Sternguard Veterans, Vanguard Veterans, Terminator Squads, Terminator Assault Squads and Rhinos. Units may only be painted in the uniforms of the Death Guard, Lunar Wolves, World Eaters or Emperor’s Children. All units have Counter Charge unless otherwise noted. Models may not Deep Strike, even in Planetstrike missions.

The Warning to the Emperor: Nathaniel Garro, Solun Decius, Iacton Qruze, 0‐1 Command Squad, Tactical Squads, Devastator Squads, Sternguard Veterans, Vanguard Veterans (without Jump Packs) and Drop Pods. Units may only be painted in the uniforms of the Death Guard with the exception of Iacton Qruze. All units are Stubborn unless otherwise noted.

Legio I - Dark Angels The Dark Angels have the honour of being the first Legion created by The Emperor. Like the other Primarchs, Lion El'Jonson was lost while he was still in his infancy. He later turned up on the distant planet of Caliban, which bore some resemblance to early medieval Terra. Luther, who discovered El'Jonson and prevented his death at the hands of his fellow knights, was a member of the Order, an organization of knights, and the two become close friends. The Primarch eventually became the leader of the Order and the whole of Caliban. Meanwhile, unknown to the people of Caliban, the Emperor was waging his Great Crusade across the galaxy, reuniting humanity and purging entire star systems of their alien oppressors. As the Imperium's wave of conquest advanced across the galaxy, Imperial scouts rediscovered the isolated world of Caliban. It was not long before the Emperor was at last reunited with El'Jonson and was filled with joy as would be a father on finding his lost son. The Emperor's first action was to give Lion El'Jonson control of the I Legion. This legion of Space Marines had been created by the Emperor from its Primarch's DNA samples and had fought alongside the other Imperial forces as the Great Crusade was waged across the galaxy. The I Legion was thereafter named as the Dark Angels, in reference to a Caliban legend that told of great, righteous heroes who held back monsters. The keen horsemen of the Order known as the Ravenwing, became expert hunters on motorcycle and Jetbikes and were an invaluable asset to the Dark Angels as they hunted down their enemies. Members of Lion El’Jonson’s favoured officers as well as units from their new homeworld were frequently seen in armour the burnished green of Caliban’s forests rather than the Legion’s usual black attire. As the Emperor’s Great Crusade continued these emerald‐clad warriors rose to greater prominence within the I Legion forming a favoured cadre around their Primarch.

Legio V - White Scars After a few years the Great Crusade made planetfall on Mundus Planus (or Chogoris as the natives called it). Six months later, the Emperor arrived and the Primarch Jaghatai Khan k new at once that this man could fulfil his dream, to unite all of the stars above them in one mighty empire. In front of all of his generals, he dropped to one knee and pledged his service to the Emperor, his father. He was given command of the V legion of Space Marines, the White Scars. The Legion organization of the White Scars quickly began to reflect their new home world's tribal culture. The steppes of Chogoris are inhabited by feuding tribes, from which are chosen the best and most promising young warriors, regardless of tribe. Once a warrior becomes a White Scar, loyalty to his tribe is replaced by loyalty to the Legion, the Primarch and the Emperor. As Jaghatai Khan did during his campaign to unite the steppes peoples of Chogoris before the arrival of the Emperor, recruits from different tribes are mixed together in squads. Each squad becomes part of a Brotherhood, roughly equivalent to a standard Company. All White Scars bear a long, ritual facial scar, a token of their warrior upbringing. This ferocity is carried over into their preferred fighting style specialising in lightning warfare, and making use of chariots, jet bikes and land speeders.

Storm Seers have been part of life on Chogoris since long before the coming of the Emperor. Though their presence does not contravene the law of the Council of Nikea it surely must go against the spirit it was intended. Storm Seers do not cast psychic powers as such. Instead they use their abilities to scry the future and interpret signs and portents to aid the White Scars.

Council of Nikea: You may not include Chaplains in an army where a Storm Seer is present. Psyker: Storm Seers do not have psychic powers as such, instead their abilities are represented by several of their special rules. They count as Psykers however and are able to use Force Weapons.

Tulwar: A signature weapon of the White Scars Legion. The curved blade is used by both White Scar cavalry and infantry. The grip of the tulwar is cramped in the hands of an Astartes and the prominent disc of the pommel presses into the wrist if attempts are made to use it to cut like a conventional sabre. These features of the tulwar hilt result in the hand having a very secure and rather inflexible hold on the weapon, enforcing the use of variations on the White Scar’s very effective ‘draw cut’. In game terms all Power Weapons in a White Scars army may be replaced with a Tulwar for no additional points cost. The tulwar armed model may re‐roll their failed wound rolls. Tulwars ignore armour saves.

Legio VI - Space Wolves When the Primarchs were spread throughout the galaxy, one came to land in the far north west of the galaxy on a remote ice world named Fenris. He was adopted by a Fenrisian she‐wolf and raised among the wolves, with his two wolf brothers "Freki" and "Geri". He was said to have been the best leader, no one could stand against him and it was not long before the tales came to the Emperor's notice. The Emperor entered Russ's court, cloaked in runes of disguise and confusion. The natives shrunk from this new presence. Russ refused to pay him homage as the Master of Mankind. Russ challenged the Emperor to a series of tests. The first challenge was an eating one. This the Emperor lost. The second challenge was a drinking one. This the Emperor also failed. For the third challenge Russ boasted he could defeat the Emperor in combat. This time, the Emperor defeated Russ, felling him with a blow from his power glove. Leman admitted defeat and swore to serve the Emperor.

Just weeks later, Russ was placed at the head of his VI Legion (newly named the Space Wolves) and joined the Great Crusade. He was armed with a thrice blessed suit of armour and a new sword forged from the maw of the Great Kraken Gormenjarl and reputably, the blade could cleave the ice mountains of Fenris in half. HEROES OF LEGEND: More than in any other Legion, the heroes of the Space Wolves appeared to be everywhere in the dark days of the Heresy. Space Wolf armies may take two Space Wolf HQ choices for each HQ slot available to them.

Space Wolves units may never use the deep strike special rule unless using a drop pod, even in Planetstrike missions. Terminator squads of six models or less may purchase drop pods for +35 points per unit.

Legio VII - Imperial Fists Like almost all of the Astartes Legions, the VII Legion had been formed on Terra as evidenced by its earliest battle honour 'Roma'. The VII Legion had recruited heavily on Inwit and over 70% of its strength were aspirants. The Imperial Fists were therefore a rarity in that Battle Brothers and Primarch were united very early in their service to the Emperor and quickly formed an unbreakable bond. Born from the same gene‐stock, Primarch and Legion had the same uncompromising self‐discipline and total commitment to order.

The handful of Terran Battle Brothers brought a tradition of honour duels that was readily embraced by the Legion as a whole. Brothers still duel with swords following the same conventions. No man knows the true age of this form of ritual combat but it binds the brothers together, giving and receiving honour and remembering their Terran heritage even if far from their home. As the Crusade was shattered by Horus’ Great Betrayal, Dorn took command of the Imperial forces around Terra and marshalled a response to the Warmaster’s treachery. Sending seven Legions to battle the traitors at Isstvan V Dorn began to reinforce the Emperor’s Palace for a possible Siege of Terra.

Legio IX - Blood Angels The Blood Angels were created from the genetic material of their Primarch Sanguinius. As with all of the Primarchs, Sanguinius was genetically engineered to be a supreme super‐soldier but was cast into the warp during his infancy along with his brothers, and found on the nuclear‐ blasted world of Baal Secundus. Sanguinius was affected by the warp, and when he was found by one of the few unmutated human tribes on Baal, he had a pair of angelic wings growing from his back. As he matured quickly, he was able to use his superhuman powers and abilities to unite the humans of Baal against the mutants and become their leader. Sanguinius was reputed to have had some form of psychic powers, principally the gift of foresight. When the Emperor found Baal in his search for the twenty Primarchs, Sanguinius immediately recognized him for who he was and bent down on his knee, pledging his service. In this, Sanguinius was one of the few Primarchs who did not challenge the Emperor upon their reunion. The Emperor took Sanguinius and a number of his best warriors and placed him in command of the IX Space Marine Legion which he named the Blood Angels. During the Great Crusade, the Blood Angels became known as being excellent shock assault troops, and formed a rivalry with the similarly assault‐oriented World Eaters Legion.

Legio X - Iron Hands The early history of Ferrus Manus is chronicled in the folklore of Medusa. The most popular of these tales is the Canticle of Travels, which details the trials of Ferrus Manus and his ordeal with the Great Silver Wyrm known as Asirnoth. The Canticle is the only tale that even attempts to explain the mystery of how Ferrus Manus came by his living metal hands. Ferrus Manus never united the people of his homeworld in the way other Primarchs had, on the basis that competition grew greater strength. When the Emperor took Manus to become the leader of the X Legion, the Primarch altered his position and became an avid believer and ruthless practitioner of the Emperor's Great Crusade to unite Mankind. The Iron Hands, as the X Legio became known, have a reputation for being relatively straightforward and incredibly harsh. In the Battle of Thranx, for example, the resources of several depleted clan‐companies were pooled for a full frontal assault using five Land Raiders against a facility bristling with anti‐tank defences that had made a mockery of previous attempts with whole armoured companies; in the retaking of the Contqual Subsector, one third of the population was summarily executed after a successful campaign simply to demonstrate the price of weakness.

Kaargul was chieftain of one of the last tribes to pledge their support to Ferrus but once his word had been given Kaargul followed his Primarch across the galaxy on the Great Crusade. Though mortally wounded a century ago, he still serves his Primarch with honour.

Whenever he suffers a glancing or penetrating hit you may ask your opponent to re‐roll the result on the Vehicle Damage table. However, you must accept the second result, even if it is worse.

Access points: One access hatch on each side and a rear assault ramp (units disembarking from a Medusa Gunship may assault on the same turn it lands).

Legio XIII - Ultramarines Like all the Primarchs, Roboute Guilliman was separated from the Emperor and came to rest on a distant planet, in this case, Macragge. Roboute's arrival on Macragge was a portentous time, and when he was found by Konor, one of the planet’s rulers, he took him in, naming him Roboute, which means "Great One". Roboute showed vast promise, mastering all that Macragge's wisest men could teach him, including the art of war. Roboute was given command of an army and tasked with the mission of pacifying the wild men who lived to the north of Macragge's capital in the mountains.

Not only did Roboute fight a brilliant campaign but he also earned the respect of the wild men who never again threatened the more civilized parts of Macragge. However on his return to the capital Roboute found the city in chaos, as his father's Co‐Consul had attempted a coup. Roboute left his men to restore order to the city while he rushed to the Consul House only to find his father close to death surrounded by his loyal bodyguards. Guilliman then set about punishing the treachery, rewarding the hard working rather than the influential. After his father's death Roboute assumed the mantle of sole Consul of Macragge

After the Emperor landed on Macragge and met Roboute Guilliman, Roboute quickly took command of the XIII Legion. During the Great Crusade, the Ultramarines won countless victories, expanding the realm of the Imperium. Due to Roboute's tactical genius, he ensured that all worlds that he took were left more prosperous than before and thus able to contribute to the Imperium.

Legio XVIII - Salamanders The people of Nocturne were frequently raided by the alien species known as the Primuls. After Vulkan arrived on Nocturne as an infant he soon began to inspire courage in the populace. With a primarch leading the defence, the people of the town decisively defeated the Primuls. Within weeks the leaders of the seven largest towns on Nocturne had travelled to meet Vulkan, and they soon swore never again to hide from the raiders. In celebration of the Primarch's victory, a tournament was decided to be held. Unexpectedly, a stranger arrived in the middle of the festivities. When he announced that he could best anyone in the town, the people laughed at this outlander. Who could possibly beat Vulkan in any feat of intellect, strength, craftsmanship or endurance? Nonetheless, Vulkan and the stranger wagered that whoever lost the tournament would forever serve the victor. In the final event, both contestants were given a day to construct a weapon, before using said weapon to hunt down and slay the largest salamander they could find. Climbing a high mountain, the two each went out to find a drake. Vulkan quickly found and killed a very large Fire Drake. However, on his way back, the mountain he was standing on ‐ which coincidentally was a volcano ‐ erupted, casting Vulkan over a cliff. Hanging there for hours, Vulkan's strength eventually ebbed away until he knew he must decide between the drake and his life. At that moment however, the stranger arrived, carrying his own drake. Even from the edge of the cliff, the Primarch could tell that the outlander's drake was indeed bigger. Seeing Vulkan in distress, the stranger acted quickly, tossing his drake into a lava flow that separated them and using it as a bridge to cross to the Primarch. After hoisting Vulkan out of his mortal predicament, the stranger walked with him back to town, leaving his own drake to burn in the river of molten rock. Though the outlander's Drake had been superior in size, he had thrown it away to save Vulkan, and when he returned to town with the Primarch empty‐handed, Vulkan was declared the victor. To the amazement of his people however, Vulkan kneeled before the stranger and said that any man who would value life over pride was worthy of his service. At this moment, the outlander cast off his illusionary disguise was revealed to be the Emperor of humanity. Thus it was that Vulkan and his father were reunited. It was decided that the XVIII legion of Space Marines would henceforth be known as the Salamanders, in honour of the beast that had united them.

Legio XIX - Raven Guard Corax was discovered on Deliverance, the desolated moon of the technologically advanced Forge planet Kiavahr. It is said that the Emperor appeared on Deliverance the day Corax liberated the slaves of Deliverance and overthrew the tech‐guard of Kiavahr. After a day and a night with his son the Emperor appointed him Primarch of the XIX Legion, the Raven Guard. During the Great Crusade Corax's talents for planning and sabotage were of great effect and the Raven Guard, fighting frequently under the orders of Horus, became renowned for an unmatched ability with covert ops, sabotage, infiltration and lightning strikes. The right shoulder guard trim denotes the company of the Raven Guard that the marine fights in. Red denotes Captain Blackshadow’s third Company for example. The Raven Guard are known for hitting weak points in enemy defences hard and they perform lightning strike upon locations of tactical importance to cripple their enemy. The Raven Guard disdain the notion of recklessly charging into enemy ranks. This differentiates their tactics from those of Legions such as the World Eaters. The Raven Guard rely heavily on their Scouts for pinpointing enemy positions and to scout for good drop sites. Because of their hit and run tactics they also make extensive use of Assault Squads and along with the Night Lords were amongst the first to field test jump packs. The Tactical Squads of the Raven Guard are often deployed via Stormbirds, Thunderhawks or Drop Pods.

The Imperial Army When the Emperor left Terra on the Great Crusade, it is said that he would expect the inhabitants of the worlds he conquered to maintain defences and armed forces for their own safety, against internal rebellion and external invasion. It is out of these forces that the Imperial Army was first formed. Initially used as garrison forces, they were quickly pushed to the forefront of the Crusade. Many regiments became renowned during the wars of the Horus Heresy such as the Archite Palatines, Byzant Janizars, Geno Five‐ Two Chilliad and Outremar.

Using the Imperial Army in the Horus Heresy

Armies must be selected using Codex Imperial Guard with the latest FAQ from Games Workshop’s website. Please contact us at the Tempus Fugitives if you do not understand this point. IMPORTANT: The Imperial Army is normally deployed under the command of the Astartes Legions. As a result your army’s first HQ choice must always be an Independent Character from Codex Space Marines or this campaign pack. Space Marine Independent Characters taken in this way may issue up to 2 orders a turn exactly like a Company Commander and count as being equipped with a vox. You must specify which Legion your Space Marines are from and as such can take 0‐2 characters and upgrades from the Astartes section of this campaign pack. This includes an HQ choice if taken from the Astartes Legion section. Benefits (such as Legion Tactics or Rites of Battle) apply only to the Astartes and not to members of the Imperial Army. You cannot take Astartes units from more than one Legion. You may take Tactical or Assault Squads from Codex Space Marines as Elites choices. The Marine units have the options available to them from their Codex including Rhinos and Drop Pods. You may not include any Astartes units other than those mentioned here. You may use the rules for Imperial Guard variant army lists found in Imperial Armour except for Armoured Battlegroups. Though in the 41st Millennium vehicles such as Hellhound and Leman Russ variants are commonplace, they remain either undiscovered or awaiting further testing during the Age of the Emperor. However, on occasion vehicles with similar capabilities were employed during the Age of the Emperor, though in far smaller numbers. As a result only one squadron of Hellhound, Bane Wolf, Devil Dog, Leman Russ Punisher or Leman Russ Annihilators may be included in an army. All Imperial Army tank squadrons may include up to five vehicles The ‘Bring It Down’ order applies to shots against Primarchs and Primarch Honour Guard. Imperial Army forces may take Land Raiders (C:SM pg 81) as Heavy Support choices for +240 points per Land Raider. Land Raiders bought for the Imperial Army may be given any vehicle options available to the Land Raider as laid out in Codex Space Marines but have a Ballistic Skill of 3. They may not take other Land Raider variants. Any Imperial Army Company Command Squad may be equipped with Jetbikes at +15 points per model. Each model receives +1 T and has an armour save of 4+. Models equipped with Jetbikes count as Jetbikes rather than Infantry. Imperial Jetbikes are armed with twin‐linked bolt guns. Veteran squads or Storm Trooper squads may take jump packs at +50 points per squad. You may not include Priests.

The common solider of the Imperium is called upon for many things for the good of humanity. They are called upon to fight and, usually, to die while the gods of war, the Emperor’s Astartes, stride amongst them seemingly oblivious to their frailty. True heroism is something of a rarer commodity on the battlefields of the 31st Millennium and is found in the most unlikely of places. Some actions will echo throughout history. One man can save an Empire…

We are Legion: Any Clone Trooper squad of three models or less may be removed from play at the start of the Imperial Army Movement phase. It counts as being destroyed by the opposing player and the first time it is removed it awards a Kill Point if the mission requires it. Once a squad of Clone Troopers is destroyed it may be immediately brought back into play as a new unit held in reserve. When reserves become available it is deployed as per the mission. Clone Trooper squads brought back into play do not award further Kill Points and no longer count as scoring.

To combat the growing mass of defections and heresy spreading through the Emperor’s armies, the Army Commissariat can decree martial law and take control until a suitable command can be re‐established.

Neuro‐Gauntlet: This is a close combat weapon. Roll to hit as normal, but don't roll to wound. Instead each hit causes one wound on a D6 roll of 4+ regardless of the target's Toughness, and with no Armour save allowed (Invulnerable saves may be taken as normal). Vehicles hit by a neuro‐gauntlet take a glancing hit on a D6 roll of 6, regardless of the vehicle's Armour value. Combat Drugs: Minerva can charge 12" in the Assault phase (or double the distance of the dice roll if moving through difficult terrain). When Minerva charges into combat, she gains an extra D6 Attacks rather than just +1 Attack. Bio‐Meltdown! If Minerva is killed, place a Blast marker centred over the model. So terrible are the energies released by a dying Sister of Cydonia that any model touched by the template takes an automatic Strength 5 hit, with no armour saving throws allowed. Minerva is then removed from play.
